Hope calls to see Sam Blakeman (Jude Riordan) and tells him she made £75 flogging her dad’s book.
Hope joins in a group chat entitled Legacy of Evil and types a message to her classmates informing them that she’s planning a special tribute to John Stape.
Hope steals a hammer from Tyrone’s tool box and hides her cash in a tin in a cupboard.
In the factory, Beth Tinker (Lisa George) shows Sally Metalfe (Sally Dynevor) the chapter in the John Stape book about his affair with Rosie Webster (Helen Flanagan).
In the school corridor, Hope approaches a couple of year 11 girls and tells them that she’ll be giving a reading from the John Stape book.
Fiz is furious to find Sally reading the John Stape book and a row ensues.
At No.9, Fiz and Tyrone are deeply concerned to discover the hammer missing from the toolbox and a stash of cash in a tin in the cupboard.
When Hope overhears the two year 11 girls calling her a nut job, she pulls the hammer from her bag, and heads towards them. How far will Hope go?
Elsewhere, Sam and Nick Tilsley (Ben Price) meet up with Karis, the facilitator and head into the prison.
In the prison visiting room, Sam interrogates Harvey Gaskell (Will Mellor) who concedes that he intended to murder Leanne Battersby (Jane Danson).
When Harvey reveals that his Mum died when he was 14, Sam reckons it must have caused him to go off the rails.
Sam asks Harvey some awkward questions about his mum and Harvey strides out.
In his prison cell, Harvey is clearly rattled by Sam’s visit. Picking up Sam’s most recent letter, Harvey sets about reading his questions.
Also, Brian Packam (Peter Gunn) and Mary Taylor (Patti Clare) attend rehearsals at the Community Centre with Ken Barlow (Bill Roache) and Nigel.
